Chapter 134
The next night.
Dueling Club.
The number of young wizards who came this time far exceeded the last time.
Not only because there were no classes in the evening, most people came to watch the fun.
Snape's notoriety was not only spread in Gryffindor, but many people in every college disliked him.
Lockhart's reputation in Hogwarts campus plummeted after the Cornwall elf incident and the last dueling club.
These two people can be called the two most unpopular professors in Hogwarts school.
No matter who loses, the young wizards of Hogwarts are happy to see it.
Following Lockhart's exaggerated and ostentatious opening remarks, Snape appeared at the edge of the stage with a cold face.
In his heart, he cursed Dumbledore's original decision!
If Dumbledore hadn't worried that Lockhart would cause trouble in the dueling club, he would have made him the club's instructor.
How could he have gotten involved with Lockhart's dog-skin plaster!
He didn't get enough of the fight once, and he dared to provoke me?
I really don't know what I was studying before I studied potions?
"Argus, why did that fake Lockhart dare to challenge the dean?"
"Wasn't he beaten badly enough last time?"
"Where does he get the courage?"
Although Draco's words were inquiring, his tone was extremely disdainful.
It was obvious that he looked down on Lockhart.
Argus came here this time mainly to see the actual performance of these two products.
No matter how the test is measured, it is still far from the actual combat.
If you want to really understand the product situation, you still have to see how it is in actual combat.
He stared at Lockhart and replied casually: "Who knows? He dares to challenge, so he must have some confidence."
"How dare he do that?"
"That's true," Draco nodded.
The little wizards around also pointed at Lockhart.
"I remember that Professor Lockhart couldn't even deal with the Cornish elves, right? How dare he say he can defeat Professor Snape in one move!"
"Tsk, I saw it with my own eyes. He was defeated by Professor Snape in one move last time."
"Yes, yes, yes, I was there at the time. Professor Snape is still powerful, much stronger than some people who can only talk!"
Everyone talked about it, and veins popped out of Lockhart's forehead.
He wanted fame, but not this kind of "black and red"!
He tightened his cloak and prepared to vent all his anger on Snape.
Pull out the wand and aim at Snape!
"Professor Snape, are you ready?"
"The duel will begin soon!"
Snape didn't care, took out his wand, and took a duel stance.
"Duel ready!" Lockhart's voice was a little nervous.
He didn't know how useful the secret weapon given by Argus was.
He hadn't experienced a battle for many years, and he had no confidence in his own strength.
The only thing he could rely on was the wand in his hand!
Snape looked at Lockhart's uneasy expression, and the contempt at the corner of his mouth became even worse.
It seemed that he had seen the scene where the other party was knocked down by his random spell again.
"Three!"
"Two!"
"One!"
As soon as the voice fell, a thin red light flashed out of Lockhart's wand like lightning!
Rushed towards Snape at high speed!
Snape was stunned by Lockhart's spell-casting speed.
He didn't even have time to chant the spell!
He could only barely release a universal protection!
But this unprepared defensive magic was too fragile.
The transparent barrier was broken.
Snape took several steps back and almost fell off the stage!
The young wizards in the audience couldn't believe their eyes.
Lockhart beat Professor Snape back?
Is this still the same fake?
"He just used... no spell to cast spells?"
"No spell to release the disarming spell?"
Draco rubbed his eyes hard, as if everything just now was an illusion.
"It seems to be like this. Generally, only wizards who are powerful and extremely familiar with this spell can use such advanced skills as no spell casting."
Argus was very satisfied with the performance of the sample.
Although there was a reason for the sneak attack and Snape's carelessness, being able to sneak attack and beat back a professor proved that his vision was correct.
This research does have great potential!
Feeling the shocked and admiring eyes of the young wizards around him, Lockhart was surprised and happy, and his hand holding the wand tightened a little.
He hadn't felt the joy of victory in battle for many years.
Unexpectedly, he could experience it at Snape's hands this time.
With a little publicity in the future,
His fame will definitely rise to a higher level!
Thinking that he could get this honor, all from Argus's sample, he looked at Argus more eagerly.
"Mr. Grindelwald was right just now, I did use the spell without a spell!"
"This is a skill that only extremely powerful wizards can use!"
"For Mr. Grindelwald's far-out-of-ordinary knowledge and vision, Slytherin plus five, no, plus ten!"
As soon as these words came out, Argus instantly felt a sinister gaze fixed on him.
Turning his head, Snape was looking at him with a dark face!
It's over!
Lockhart's performance was too obvious, and Snape saw it!
Snape was not a fool, he knew Lockhart's strengths and weaknesses.
Not to mention the spell without a spell, he was lucky to be able to cast the disarming spell safely!
He suddenly made so much progress, and he also gave points to the person who had stolen his limelight before...
Who would believe that nothing happened in the middle!
He walked onto the stage step by step and raised his wand again.
"Professor Lockhart, the duel is not over yet!"
"Isn't it too early for you to explain now?"
Having just defeated Snape, Lockhart was extremely inflated now.
Seeing Snape's posture, he proudly showed off to the group of young wizards.
"It seems that your Potions professor is not convinced by the failure just now!"
"Don't worry, I won't hurt him."
Argus knew that something bad was going to happen as soon as he heard it!
Snape was such a face-conscious person, how could he suffer for no reason!
Lockhart slowly raised his wand and said in a long tone: "Duel preparation!"
"Three, two, one!"
He wanted to repeat the same trick and catch Snape off guard again.
As a result, just as the Disarming Charm was cast, a thick red light instantly attacked!
Compared with the Disarming Charm released by Snape, his small red light was just a stunted bean sprout!
The red beam collapsed when it touched it!
Lockhart hurriedly released the Shield Charm attached to his cloak, but how could a mere second-level Shield Charm stop the furious Snape!
The protective shield attached to the Shield Charm was like paper.
In Lockhart's horrified eyes, it hit him hard.
Directly blasted him to the roof!
Then he fell to the ground.
Splashing dust all over the ground!
Snape spoke lazily.
"Professor Lockhart, now, you can continue your explanation."
